Post your favorite novel and your favorite album and get relentlessly judged by a bunch of pretentious elitists!

does it feel good to possess literally no originality?

Okay. Hit me with your best shot.

Eh why not

Too lazy to use paint.

>le I was just trolling you xD

tastes better than the dick of modern consumerist culture being constantly shoved down my throat at least

18yearsold / 10

Dune is a meme but at least not a terrible one. Infraredfoot has better albums.

6.5/10

doesn't change the fact that you were incapable of recognizing bait. you failed but that's OK. the more time you spend on Veeky Forums the better you are at recognizing it. hang in there, kiddo

at least I can understand the dislike of WUBC but that album is godly

decent

What better albums? Amnesiac more or less = Kid A > A Moon Shaped Pool > Ok Computer = In Rainbows > The Bends > Hail to the Thief > The King of Limbs > icky poopy > Pablo Honey > for good measure On A Friday

Dune isn't a "meme".

great album, shit book
nice
7/10

Stoner and Jackson C. Frank

Dune is a total meme have you even read it? Kid A is better than Amnesiac. Don't even get me started on the Dune sequels.

Dune is not a total meme, Frank Herbert's Dune series is arguably the only valuable piece of golden age science fiction written. The rest is pulpy, if not inspired pulpy, nonsense. Its world and setting is rich.

shit album, great book

>shitting on civil civic

[opinion that contradicts this]
>this is literally all this conversation will ever amount to

Lol Dune is pretty pulpy senpai

Compared to its peers it's certainly not.

Compared to its peers, it's great. Compared to actual literature, it's a memey pile of trash.

>kiddo
>if you were as much of a 4chin expert as me
>hang in there

Nah, I'm ok with not wasting my life here

I love this memey pile of trash, it's wonderful

...

>memey
Is this pronounced differently than meme?

It's pronounced "meh-may"

...

Meme: MEH-MEH.
Memey: MEH-MEH-EE.
Not hard.

Meme is pronounced me-me

Memey is pronounced meem

>literally no one has posted a non /mu/core album or non Veeky Forumscore book

meme—mɝmɝ
memey—mɝmJ̈

(using IPA)

I did.

same desu

...

Most people's favorite albums are going to be the albums they most resound with are going to be albums other people know. The same goes for books. Favorite is usually not indicative of total "quality", it is usually indicative of what is known.

>posting shit that everyone else on this board figured out in third grade

thank you for your enlightening comments

Well, your post indicated you hadn't known shit everyone else on this board figured out in the third grade.

It's like you're 15. Stop posting.

show us your advanced taste then, faggot

eh, the /mu/core thing is a bit more forgiveable. a) /mu/ likes way more albums than Veeky Forums does books, and b) /mu/ usually has legitimately good taste

Probably Dune or Point counter point
The Ugly Organ by Cursive

I'm sad that my book/album pairing will go ignored because everyone is deciding that replying to tripfags is the best way to get rid of them

I'm sad that I'm actually sad my post won't get (You)s

wasn't me senpai and even if it was the guy was just making an observation

I will not stop being 15, I will amass enough power.

Same here. I want to know what people think. I guess I'm weak that way.

Then now you know why.

pretty radical album and 7.5/10 book I approve

gd-tier patrician

even butterfly was more tolerable than you

I'm not even religious.
I couldn't decide on one album.

King James Bible
Charles Mingus - Mingus Plays Piano
Nick Cave & TBS - Dig!!! Lazarus Dig!!!
Nick Cave & TBS - The Boatman's Call
Yes - Tales From Topographic Oceans
Bohack - It Took Several Wives
Snatch - Witch 1 (Pandemonium)

Mark Twain = 6/10
weeb music = idk

damn your life must be depressing as fuck

Stoner isn't a depressing book

sounds like you have shit taste in music
you're a pretty rad guy

>not even religious
Then you just legitimately have taste that sucks this much?

...

GOAT

honestly I'll redact that, I broke my own rule and judged the album too quickly. I'm getting into it now.

...

...

I know 4 languages so this is what I like the most from each.

German: Faust, Parisfal
Ancient Greek: Odyssey, Orphic Hymns
Latin: Metamorphoses, Carmina Burana
English: King James Bible, The Black Saint and the Sinner Lady

>implying the bible isn't literally 10/10

wat?

album isn't my GOAT but it's my favorite at the moment

I'm fluent in 4 as well but I'm not as much of a fag I guess and try to flaunt it on an anonymous board... pick your favorite is it that hard?

idk it triggers my catholic school PTSD so I hate it but maybe if you don't have a viscerally negative reaction to it it's tolerable

That's the spirit. That album means a lot to me, as does the book.

sorry I ever doubted you user-chan

I agree about Twain in general, but Mysterious Stranger has some of the most powerful passages in literature.

Pinocchio-P is very good for a weeb artist. Makes the other ones look like a bunch of rubes. I recommend.

yep

...

eventual untimely RIP

also nice two same numbers

this is good +1 Veeky Forums point

...

As I said, I'm not religious whatsoever but I must have spent hundreds of hours of my life thinking about the bible. There is some powerful shit in it.
I can totally see why people fall for it and devote their life to god. And naturally it's quotable as fuck:
>''Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with thy might; for there is no work, nor device, nor knowledge, nor wisdom, in the grave, whither thou goest.''
>''He that hath no sword, let him sell his garment, and buy one.''
>''And in those days shall men seek death, and shall not find it; and shall desire to die, and death shall flee from them.''

shostakovich is amazing. his film scores are also worth checking out especially his score for A New Babylon. great pic as well. original is better though bronze horseman by benoire

Too lazy to fuck with files

>To a god unknown, Steinbeck

>Demon days

Notice how people with shallow taste in pop music have even more offensive taste in literature? It's because they're pseuds. Pseudery can't be scrubbed away by simply switching to a new genre of popular media to consume; it follows you like a tattoo.

Everybody who has posted ITT--please return to your pseud containment board and do NOT post here until you are vaguely familiar with literature. Thank you.

I've highlighted these post because they are particularly egregious examples of pseudery. Please do not post on Veeky Forums again; thank you.

>mfw i wasn't included in this post
I already knew my taste was patrician anyway though t b h

Fuck you

Book: Journey to the End of the Night
Album: Yeezus

>Portrait of the Artist - Joyce
>Fevers and Mirrors - Bright Eyes

With Runners High and Little Busters by The Pillows as a close second, and Molloy and Satantango as runners-up for novels.

Whew lad no need for such harsh words. You got called out on Veeky Forums, who gives a shit?

Fuck you.....

absolutely fucking turbo-pleb tier
please leave this board

Yeezus was good
